The Old Dog Barks Backwards

by Ogden Nash (PS 3527 .A637 O4 1972)

The Bird Lover (pg 16)

Keep your cat inside your house,
And I'll stroke his fur and give him a mouse,
But let him loose on my feeding birds
And I'll beat out of him whey and curds.
If into an ornithophile you probe
You'll rouse the sleeping aelurophobe.


If you need to use the dictionary to look up ornithophile or aelurophobe- try GALILEO.
